The Departure of the Steamer. In a few hours from the issue of our paper, the semi-monthly Mail will be closed. Then the last purse will have been tied, and the last letter sealed for transmission to our Fatherland. But. in the meantime, what '•hurrying to and fro" will mark the action of the business man ! The drama of the past two weeks is in the last scene of the last act. and the plot almost unfolded. But other hearts than those of business men are throbbing now. The wafer lingers on the busband's tongue, as he thinks upon his wife and children, ere he seals the pledge of unabated love. A youth is wending bis way to the Post-office, carrying a cartel not of death but love. In the hurry attending this particular time, when the eve of the Postmaster has not a moment to dwell upon the beloved name written in the still hour of night by the hand of the youth, with averted face, he places the letter with his forty cents on the window fur pre-pnyment, and walks innocently away.

CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE. San Jose, April 10, liSol. [In Saturday's postscript, we gave a short account of the action of the Legislature on the Sacramento Hospital Bill: but as it interests our citizens; we give this morning the debate entire, as taken from the Standard.] In the Senate to-day. Mr. Cook's (of the Assembly^ bill against obscene pictures, model artists. &amp;amp;c.. Was culled up by Mr. j Warner. The idea of such a bill passing into a law appeared so preposterous to a majority of the members, that amid jokes and sneers and jibes, which were about as witty as they were wise or nice, the bill was indefinitely postponed. Mr. Warner made a strong effort to save it. but in vain. The bare thought of legislating for the public morals and decency was really too much for the feelings of honorable Senators, and they absolutely scouted the bill out of the Senate. The bill is in truth, one of the most essential of the session, urgently demanded by the highest considerations of p...
